Agh, Termite coming out of a window frame!

We were called to a house in Mt Ommaney, Brisbane, recently to check a window frame that had “Flight Tubes” coming out of the timber frames. The owners had been away for several months and made this startling discovery when they arrived home.

Termite colonies usually build flight tubes high above their nest to allow winged reproductive termites to fly in the search of a mate (King or Queen) to start their own nest. Probably these termite engineers shouldn’t get a bonus by constructing them inside!

Hopefully, nothing as dramatic is happening in your home. But if you are worried, call us now on 3088 2100.
